Love today's Re:Zero episode.

Tell me I wasn't the only one to shed a tear.

Wolfie 05-16-2016 12:57 AM

Oh yes, it was emotional. I nearly shed a tear.

ponyo was the cutest movie ive ever seen and every artwork made by Studio Ghibli is beautiful.

Only Ghibli's I've watched are the Miyazaki films. If you haven't seen Princess Mononoke yet, you need to. I also really liked My Neighbor Totoro, if you haven't seen.

On a different note should I watch Hellsing or Hellsing Ultimate first?

GlazeyB 05-16-2016 02:50 AM

They're two different series entirely.


Skip Hellsing, Hellsing Ultimate is a much better series.

Being Subaru is suffering.
Suffaru needs a break.

same, just realized all the movies ive seen are all made by hayao miyazaki. btw im prob gonna come back later to watch all the films that you guys have recommended so don't worry, i read all.

edit: damn.. i watched a lot of Ghibli films, couldn't recognize them at first sight because the titles were different. I've watched most of them in South Korea, but it's awesome to watch it again in English and I think the English translators did a spectacular job with the translation.

POSSIBLE RE:ZERO SPOILER
Spoiler
Hmmm. I have a theory about Re:Zero.
Every time Subaru dies, it's not that time has rewind, but it's probably he restarted in another parallel world.
For example, in episode 7, Subaru jumped off the cliff and died. Time did not rewind, time still moves on in that world, and Rem is still dead. Subaru is just gone into another dimension or world where Rem is still alive and save her there. Same thing to the other deaths.
Idk. Just a weird theory I made based of Steins;Gate and the John Titor ****.


Thoughts?

GlazeyB 05-18-2016 10:17 AM

Probably not, if they go with the whole dimension hopping theory, I'd be upset. It's more of a checkpoint
Spoiler
with seemingly limited attempts, according to episode 7. I also don't like how attached he was to the maids after spending 12 days with them. And most of that time was having to reintroduce himself. Seemed really forced.



All in all, it's hard to tell where this series is going. I suspect it'll be trying to put Emilia on the throne, as that's the only overarching point I see.

Livid 05-18-2016 11:16 AM

To be honest no one can truly tell whats happening with subarus abilities, I'll just let the story unfold with itself.

Zetectic 05-18-2016 03:19 PM

@re:zero isn't it 1 season = 13 episode? 7 episode in, still stuck with maids? c'monnn :/

I don't mind if they go with the dimension hopping theory. As long as it's executed correctly, I'm happy.

Spoiler
I understand how he's attached to the 2 girls. I mean, he creates new memory with them every time his life is reset.

Slowly disliking Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress, it feels like im just rewatching Attack on titan but with a tsundere zombie.

Idk. The animation just doesn't seem as smooth or crispy as it was in AoT.

For example, this fight.
I was expecting animation with the adequacy to compare with some of the battles involving maneuver gears in AoT like the Female Titan chase.
All the fight scenes in Kabaneri up til now seems really cheap for some reason.


Look at this battle. I was expecting animation of this caliber.

Keeluah 05-19-2016 04:12 AM

Lol it's not fair comparing those two scenes when you're effectively showing one of the climax scenes that is supposed to have much more smoother animation, compared to a exposition scene to showcase how Mumei fights.

Plus that scene wasn't even that impressive since a lot of it was still frames of them pulling out their blades and the aftermath of the slices. A better scene would be when Levi fights her.

For a much better Kabaneri fight scenes animation wise, the fight ontop of the railcars was better.

Plus the scenarios for each action scenes are different, one is gliding through the sky with the 3D gears while the other is a much more sluggish heavy steam engine terrain battles.



On another note, finally got around to watching Shinsekai Yori, and damn despite the slow start, the world is so fascinating, how could I have dropped this 4 years ago?

The point is, I was expecting more. Attack on Titan's animation was already good early on imo.
I was expecting something like slow-motion bullet shots, and do you remember the animation when Annie kicks Eren whilst in his Titan form in the face in the forest? Yeah, I was expecting animation like that.
I also didn't really like the train rooftop scene.
I was expecting a scene like that to be more like this: (I know it's a joke video lool)


In short, I expected more details. Like in AoT, during some scene, you can to see the swords in more details cutting the titan's flesh and stuff. That was really awesome.
Skip to like 4:31 if you want to see what I'm talking about


I wanted to see the details when Mumei kills the Kabaneri in the 2nd episode. Would have been badass.
This entire fight has all the details I wanted and was expecting in fights with Kabane.
I was also disappointed with the fight with the guy who has been an asshole to the Kabaneri until episode 4 lol.
Needs more beautiful camera angle and sword slashing sequences.


Attack on Titan episode 1 was already lit af.

I somewhat agree but they are different anime you shouldnt expect the same type of fights. I like the way theyre going for things and trying a new way for fighting and its been really mind blowing with the train scene, besides the fact it took one shot to killthat sword kabaneri, thats the only problem theyre rushing fighting scenes all together rather than improving them they are skipping them.

One question about Kabeneri.

How did Ikoma even survive?? The Kabane got his stomach lol

Platinum 05-21-2016 01:21 AM

I am so confused with what's happening in Big Order.
Spoiler
In episode 5, did Sena and Eiji have sex?? That's sort of.. gross
after WTF ing this whole episode i went to a discussion thread and people are thinking that she is controlling Eiji?? With an order?? I wouldnt be surprised tbh but still this is a bit..
also i hate this anime bull**** where there's ALWAYS a bath scene
DAMMIT I WAS SO HAPPY I THOUGHT IYO WAS GOING TO DIE!
Also, can't that 'fact or fiction' guy just say "sena's illness is a lie"? That would make everything 100 times more easier.
Also, Eiji is a complete idiot. He could have controlled Rin's headphones and taken them off; thus allowing him to control Rin.

It's all over the place but I will keep watching because it's a cool concept

But yeah, they bit the **** outta him.

Guess he's just magically immune to most forms of injury.

Wolfie 05-21-2016 02:17 AM

Lol. I don't think he was even treated. He just stood up and walk normally. Even after taking a wound through the stomach like that, he could still fight another battle.

I'm just treating it as a comedy right now, it's just doesn't make sense at all lol. Just a huge trainwreck that sounds like it was made by a teenage edgelord.

In the previous episodes they said they cant take any sort of permanent damage from the kabaneri, they heal.

Great Ace Attorney episode.

Great adaptation

Someone told me that the Ace Attorney anime will adapt the first 2 games.

I'm just saying this now, but case 4 in the second game is ****ing godlike.

Found this explanation pretty good.
Spoiler
His justification for saving the kids is simultaneously touching and another side-effect of the time travel he's undergone. These aren't just any old people he's going after, they're kids that he's met and learned about and he feels that he has to put his "power" to the fullest potential when he's on the cusp of coming out ahead. It's another interesting spin on the time-travel because he knows that if things work out this time around, he won't have a second chance to go and save everyone. As someone said last episode, he doesn't know how many chances he has. So he pushes himself harder and harder to make sure he doesn't waste a single opportunity.
